Intermittent misfire



  Z4
I've had this on and off for a few weeks now, annoying!

It usually plays up when I first start it up after not using it for a couple of days, it will fart about, idle is lumpy, it will stall and the EM light has been known to come on.

Traced it down to the coil pack arcing out, I cleaned it all up and it worked fine, but it keeps doing it every now and then!

What should I replace? Cheers.

the coil pack is arching out or the leads - where are the archs coming from as that will be what you need to replace.

There's a few doing this now, mine started like yours a now misfire constantly, I've tried everything except lambda and CPS!

Not 100% sure tbh, very hard to see, could be the coil pack as I did notice it's arced out in different places.

Thanks for your help guys

Also happens if the plugs get wet, arcs out down the outside of them, sometimes enough for you to see marks on the ceramic
